This pie is so easy, I almost feel guilty posting this as a “recipe”!  I love the taste of anything lemon and one of my favorite things to have is lemon bars but those are more time consuming to make and sometimes can even be too sweet. That is why I love this pie so much! It is the perfect easy summer dessert because its cool, light, and refreshing and comes together super fast AND its not too sweet. PERFECT! Don’t get me wrong, made from scratch lemon pies are great! In fact, my great grandmother has a really good recipe for lemon pie with homemade meringue topping and I’ve made it several times.  But for some crazy reason, I still prefer this recipe. You can blame my mother as she does too! 🙂

Another great dessert is to skip the pie crust and put the filling in some small glasses topped with cool whip. Hello lemon shooters!
